Mr. Speaker, the House voted again yesterday in favour of a public inquiry into Chinese interference.
The three opposition parties stood up for our constituents, who are demanding an inquiry. However, there is no inquiry because, as David Johnston explained yesterday, his mandate comes neither from the House nor from the people. His mandate comes from the Prime Minister himself.
The Prime Minister said, no, over my dead body, the people will not get an inquiry.
I know the Liberal members. They are democrats. Are they not embarrassed that their leader is the only one fighting this inquiry, but more importantly, the only one going against the entire population?
